Honda Performance Development (HPD), Honda's United States-based motorsports arm, has officially changed its name to Honda Racing Corporation U.S.A. (HRC US) to reflect its new role in Honda's global racing efforts.

With the change, HRC US will take on an increased role in Honda's global motorsports activities, including the company's Formula 1 power unit development program.

Collaborating as one global entity, these two independent racing arms of Honda -- HRC Japan and HRC US -- will combine expertise and resources to strengthen Honda’s overall motorsports capabilities, the company said.

Starting in 2026, HRC will partner with the Aston Martin Aramco Cognizant F1 team as the team’s official engine supplier. HRC US will also be involved in Formula One power unit development and race support starting in 2026.
